Yes, I understand this behaviour, however:

- why does modprobe radeon without any option (nor at the shell command
line, nor somewhere in /etc/modprobe.d) complain about invalid argument,
and that UMS is not supported?

- why does my system just give me a blank screen if I don't explicitly
start it with the modeset=0, while it was working fine for years with
KMS? This is the main problem for me.
